While we’re excited about the fall season, the skin dryness that often comes with it is something we dread. As the temperatures become colder, our skin and lips lose moisture. Most times, your ride-or-die lip balm or gloss isn’t enough to prevent chapped lips. That’s why we’ve compiled five lip products that have been tested and trusted to moisturize the lips this winter.
Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm
As much as we like colorless lip balms, some days need a tiny bit of tint. This tinted lip balm doesn’t only keep your lips moisturized, but it also gives the lips some color, like Pink Sugar or Cherry.
This $25 vegan lip balm hydrates the lips with shea butter and murumuru seed. We love the fact that it smells yummy; it also makes your lips feel yummy.
U Beauty The Plasma Lip Compound
Speaking of softening and intensely moisturizing lip products, this lip compound is always rated as one of the best- and for good reason. It gives the lips a comfortable and sexy sheen; it also has many pigments to choose from.
It is an intensive lip treatment infused with skin barrier-supporting ceramides for replenishing moisture, hydraulic acid for hydrating, and a mix of conditioning oils from sweet almonds and castor seed. For $68, you can get it on the brand’s website.
Glossier Balm Dotcom
Glossier balm is famous for a reason. This balm isn’t only for the lips. It’s for any chapped part of the skin- from the elbows to the heels. The brand changed from using petrolatum as the main additive to castor jelly, making the balm even more hydrating.
Aside from the conditioning feature of castor jelly, it’s also infused with additional Vitamin E. The popular Wild Fig hue gives the lips a sheer color, while the Original is an untinted variant. Glossier balm dotcom costs about $14.
Burt’s Bees Renewing Lip Treatment
As we get older, wrinkles, fine lines, and loss of lip volume are inevitable. Instead of spending on botox and filler treatments, this lip balm is an effective way to make the lips appear more plump without toxic chemicals.
This lip treatment moisturizes the skin and reduces the appearance of fine lines with a blend of coconut oil, beeswax, and sunflower seed oil. We love the high-shine finish that makes you wonder if it’s a lip treatment or a luxury lip gloss. It costs about $12.
Flower Beauty Petal Pout Lip Mask
Forget the fact that it’s a lip mask. The Petal Pout Lip Mask gives the lips a sheer tint- there are six different shades to choose from. However, this wonderful appearance doesn’t make it any less effective in nourishing the lips.
With natural conditioners like cocoa butter and mango, this lip mask hydrates and moisturizes the skin- goodbye, chapped lips! We also love that the mask leaves an even layer of color. The Petal Lip Mask costs $12.
